Other Procurement Professional

Associate membership is available to procurement personnel of state agencies independent of the central procurement office, higher education institutions, and others within NASPO guidelines. More information on associate membership eligibility along with the online application are available here.

Supplier

NASPO does not offer opportunities for supplier membership. However, as a private sector supplier, you have the opportunity to attend NASPO's Exchange Conference each spring. This conference brings state procurement officials together with companies large and small to discuss how to do business with the states and form successful partnerships. Details on the Exchange Conference can be found on NASPO's events page.

NASPO's mission is to help our members achieve success as public procurement leaders in their states through promotion of best practices, education, professional development, research, and innovative procurement strategies.
